Mrs. K's Class

Candy and Cards Galore!

Before the big day on February 14, we did some fun Valentine's Day activities. Here are some pictures of Alex and Rebecca participating in the Conversation Hearts Chart activity.

We also spent time decorating Valentine's Day Boxes so that when the day did finally arrive, the students had a way to keep all of their valentines in one place.

Valentine's Day was a super fun day in our class. Mrs. Mathis' class came over to our room around 1:30 for a party and we had tons of delicious treats to eat. (I forgot to snap some pictures from the party) I did want to give a huge thank you to all of the parents who sent in snacks for our party. Your donations are appreciated so much.

Now, if I can just get over this sinus infection/ear infection/respiratory infection that has had me home bound for 2 days now!! We have Special Olympics: Basketball tomorrow and I don't want to miss that.

Valentine's Day!

Valentine's Day is just around the corner! Our class has been prepping by making Valentine's boxes this past week. After choosing a red, white, or pink box- students were able to decorate their box with markers and stickers. Now each student has their own box to collect the Valentine's Day cards that they receive from their friends.

I want to post all of the student's names so that when the time comes for you and your kiddo to make Valentines, you are both prepared.

I'll include the students in Mrs. Mathis' class as well, because the students in our class spend a lot of time together. I'll also include the staff member's names because we love getting Valentines too!

65 Degrees in January

After lunch on Wednesday our class spent some time outside enjoying the beautiful weather! North Carolina's weather is so unpredictable, we figured we should enjoy the warmth while it lasts.

The kiddos loved drawing with sidewalk chalk and playing with bouncy balls during our time outside.

We spent about 30 minutes outside and everyone was thirsty when we got back to the classroom. It was nice to get some fresh air and get some exercise outside.

Here are some photos from our time outside:

R.J. lounging after drawing with sidewalk chalk.

Rebecca and Mrs. K take a selfie after spinning around in circles until they got dizzy.

Alan bouncing a ball and enjoying some sunshine.

We hope the warm weather is around to stay, but something tells me we haven't seen the last of the snow.

New Items in Our Classroom

Mrs. K was so excited that Santa brought her some new things for the classroom this past Christmas.

The kids have loved playing back with some new puzzles, using the tactile flash cards, and drawing on our new whiteboard easel.

We use this new calendar each morning at group.

The light filters make such a difference in the atmosphere of our classroom.

The kids love the new look and less intense light.
